Should a single growth standard be used to judge the nutritional status of children under age 5 y globally? Debate consensus. Key disagreements included methodological approaches for developing a single growth standard to evaluate nutritional status globally; the relative utility of universal and contextual growth standards for clinical practice and public health; the balance of benefits, harms, and acceptability among stakeholders; and their use as a screening or a definitive tool in individual and public health nutrition. Noteworthy agreements for research priorities included comparison of benefits and harms of using universal compared with contextual growth standards/references and different stakeholders' perception of expectations from and utility of growth standards. |

A cross-sectional study of associations between the <sup>13</sup>C-sucrose breath test, the lactulose rhamnose assay, and growth in children at high risk of environmental enteropathy. In children at risk of EE there were no associations between the 13 C-SBT, LR or other EE biomarkers encompassing different pathophysiological domains of EE. Trial registry |
Concentrations and predictors of select nutrients in Canadian human milk samples from the MIREC pregnancy cohort. HM mineral concentrations from this study meet the methodological inclusion criteria for updating nutrient databank values and dietary reference intakes. Consideration of factors such as diet, skin colour, and BMI will be important for selecting studies for developing representative reference values based on human milk. |
Food is Medicine National Summit: Transforming Health Care. Challenges and opportunities to broader implementation and scaling of FIM programs identified include incorporating FIM into health care business models, educating the health care workforce, and sustainably scaling FIM programs while leveraging the local connections of community-based organizations. This meeting report highlights recent advances, best practices, challenges, and opportunities discussed at the National Summit to inform future actions on FIM. |
The Intestinal Microbiome but not Clinical Aspects of Inflammatory Bowel Disease is Impacted by Lactose Malabsorption Compared to Lactose Digestion in Children. Lactose malabsorption does not affect the clinical presentation or outcomes of children with inflammatory bowel disease. However, this study establishes that a single non-absorbed fermentable food product can alter the intestinal microbiome in both a regional and disease specific manner. As we continue to learn more about the pathophysiology of inflammatory bowel disease and the role of the intestinal microbiome in disease onset and progression, it would be of benefit to examine the impact of other potential fermentable nutrients and their products on inflammatory bowel disease outcomes. |
Ultraprocessed food intake and body mass index change among youths: a prospective cohort study. A higher UPF intake was associated with a modest yet significant increase in BMI in large prospective cohorts of United States youths, calling for public health efforts to promote healthful food intake among youths to prevent excessive weight gain. |

Healthcare Access for Patients With Inflammatory Bowel Disease in the United States: A Survey by the Crohn's & Colitis Foundation. While there have been significant and numerous advancements in IBD treatments, patients with IBD continue to experience barriers to healthcare access and treatment and financial struggles. Ongoing awareness and advocacy efforts focused on healthcare system reform and related policies to further minimize care disparities and barriers remain vital. |

The circulating methylome in childhood-onset inflammatory bowel disease. Passive smoking exposure is associated with the development of UC rather than CD contrary to previous findings. These data provide new insights into epigenetic alterations in IBD and illustrate the reproducibility and translational potential of epigenome-wide association studies in complex diseases. |

Clinical impact of intraoperative pancreatic transection margin analysis and additional resection during pancreaticoduodenectomy for pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma. 1 st FSA-CIS and 1 st FSA-R0 had similar OS, implying that additional resection may be acceptable for 1 st FSA-CIS. 1 st FSA-IC was still an independent prognostic factor based on additional resection, and the prognostic significance of additional resection is uncertain for 1 st FSA-IC. |
Survival analysis of the metastatic cohort of Italian Association of Medical Oncology (AIOM) GARIBALDI survey. Additionally, no statistically significant role of neither the self-declared expertise nor the accrual rate was observed. The GARIBALDI study suggests that the self-declared center expertise and the academic brand are not associated to OS in patients with mPDAC, while center commitment warrants further exploration. |
